The study used Gross Domestic Product as a proxy for economic growth and employed it as the dependent variable; whereas, monetary policy rate, Cash Reserve Ratio, Treasury Bills, and liquidity rate respectively were used as the explanatory variables to measure monetary policy. Hypotheses formulated were tested using Autoregressive Distributed Lagged (ARDL) Bound co-integration test ECM. The study revealed that the Cash reserve ratio (CRR) and Treasury Bill Rate (TBR) were positive and statistically significant on Gross Domestic Product in Nigeria. Monetary Policy Rate (MPR) has a negative and is statistically significant to economic growth in Nigeria. While the Liquidity ratio had a negative and insignificant impact on Gross Domestic Product in Nigeria. The ECM result reveals that the error correction term is negative and statistically significant, and this corroborates and shows evidence of a certain return to the short-run equilibrium in the model. Therefore, the study recommends that monetary authorities should give priority attention to CRR and TBR monetary policy tools as they will produce a more desirable result in terms of economic stabilization.","PeriodicalId":286633,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Advanced Studies in Economics and Public Sector Management","volume":"50 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136231044","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The increase in debt services has been worrisome; recently Nigeria’s debt service has astronomically increased without interruption. This uninterrupted increase of debt service has resulted to decrease in infrastructure, consequently, decreasing private investment and aggregate demand, thus, increasing unemployment in the country. The study employed an econometric model to test a long run relationship between debt services and infrastructural development and found a long run relationship. The study also found a negative and statistically significant relationship between debt services and infrastructure in Nigeria. Based on the findings, the study recommended that government should look for alternative means of raising fund rather than borrowing.","PeriodicalId":286633,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Advanced Studies in Economics and Public Sector Management","volume":"115 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136231645","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The data for the study is sourced from Central Bank Statistical Bulletin. Energy consumption is proxied by Alternative and Nuclear Energy (ANE), Per Capita Electricity Consumption (CPN) and Fossil Fuel Energy Consumption (FEN), while Life expectancy is proxied by life expectancy at birth. The variables were subjected to stationarity tests and the result shows that the variables were integrated of mixed order of integration (level i(0) & first difference i(1)). This justified the adoption of the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) as technique of analysis. The ARDL Bounds test result indicates that long-run relationship exist among the variables in the model. The long result showed that Per Capita Electricity Consumption (EPN) and Per Capita Income (PCI) have positive effect on life expectancy, while Fossil Fuel Energy, Trade Openness, and Alternative and Nuclear Energy (ANE) have negative effect on Life Expectancy in Nigeria. The short run result also shows that per capita electricity consumption has positive effect on life expectancy, while fossil fuel energy consumption and trade openness have negative effect on life expectancy in Nigeria. The study concludes per capital electricity consumption affects life expectancy positively, while fossil fuel energy consumption and alternative and nuclear energy affect life expectancy negatively in Nigeria.

The role of policy makers and the availability of essential information on the economy seem to be major causes of this ominous predicament. This paper aimed at investigating the causal relationship between transparency, governance and fiscal sustainability in Nigeria from 1996 to 2021, using a vector auto regression framework. The empirical results confirm a cointegration relationship between transparency, governance and fiscal sustainability. The flow of causality between control of corruption and fiscal sustainability appears to be mixed. At 1 lag, control of corruption granger causes fiscal sustainability, while at 2 lags, fiscal sustainability granger causes control of corruption at 5% and 10% significance levels. Results of the impulse response functions suggest that one standard deviation innovation on fiscal sustainability reduces fiscal deficit in the medium and long term, while results of the variance decomposition indicate that a significant variation in Nigeria’s fiscal sustainability is not attributable to changes in the political stability. It is recommended that for fiscal sustainability to be improved and sustained, mechanisms which deliberately seek to enhance improved level of fiscal discipline in the country should be employed. It is also imperative for more institutionalized policies that can improve transparency and promote inclusive governance that can curb fiscal indiscipline like budget deficit in view of stimulating fiscal sustainability in Nigeria.","PeriodicalId":286633,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Advanced Studies in Economics and Public Sector Management","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130581303","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One of these policies was the recent 2022 redesign of the Nation’s currency in (₦200, ₦500, ₦1000 notes), launched on Wednesday, November 22, 2022. However, the small businesses in Nigeria viewed this policy with much mixed feelings, Reviewed literature was carried out. Small businesses developmental positions much more depended on the form of money in circulation, its acceptability, availability and how it was managed by the monetary authorities. The study adopted the descriptive survey design with a population of 2,850,900, adopted Yamane formula to arrive at a sample size of 400. Simple random sampling method was used for the selection of respondents with a distribution of 740 copies of questionnaire, self-administered and 620 responded and retrieved from small businesses. The source of data was primary. A five-point Likert-scale nature of questionnaire was adopted, validated by four distinguished lecturers. The method of data analysis was by linear regression. Findings showed that small businesses developmental planning would negatively be affected for they were not consulted for ideas at the initial point of conception of the process of currency redesign, during the redesign process and final launched of the currency hence small businesses were at serious risk of losing their developments’ planning initiative results. Also, small businesses would seriously lose their customers base astronomically having serious money exchange challenge with their individual and collective customers because of the very short period given by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) for the fading out of the old currency designed to the new currency redesigned. In conclusion, it must be said that the Central Bank of Nigeria could have a better intention on the redesign of the currency. More so, the approach to its public engagements and public notifications were graced with mixed feelings. Recommended are that the Central Bank of Nigeria should quickly consult small businesses in all the processes on the redesign of the currency to help these small businesses in their developmental planning. Also, the Central Bank of Nigeria should give longer period for the fading out of the old currency designed to the new currency redesigned so that small businesses would not seriously lose their customers’ base astronomically.","PeriodicalId":286633,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Advanced Studies in Economics and Public Sector Management","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126611442","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However most firms do not position their products in the minds of the consumers which consequently results to little or non-brand perception as well as non-purchase intention by consumers. This study investigated the effect of consumer brand perception variables and purchase intention of selected fast-moving consumer goods (FMCGs) firms in Lagos State, Nigeria. Survey research design was adopted for this study. The population of the study was 1,774,657 consumers of fast-moving consumer goods firms that reside in different local governments of the different five regions in Lagos state Nigeria, and a sample size of 499 was determined using Krejcie and Morgan. Primary source of data was adopted with a validated and instrument with a Cronbach alpha value greater than 0.7. Both descriptive and inferential tools were used for the data analysis. Multiple regression analysis was used to determine the effect of the independent sub-variables on the dependent variable using Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) version 27.
